Deskripsi

The endothelial to haematopoietic transition (EHT) is the process where haemogenic endothelium differentiates into haematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPCs). Here the authors use single cell transcriptomics and antibody screening to identify CD44 as a marker of EHT that is required for EHT and HSPC development.
